Happy New Year to all BAM members. Let us hope we all enjoy a healthy year.

The next BAM monthly lunch will be at the San Cristobal Restaurant on 30th January. The exact menu will be provided ASAP, however it will contain a choice of meat or fish dishes. Please contact Violette, 952828988 or Joan, 952835947, at the latest by Monday morning 27th January to book your place and advise them of your meat or fish preference. The cost for the 3 course lunch includes the tip and a drink is €13.50. The lunch, as usual, will commence at 1.30pm for 2.00pm.

At the recent BAM committee meeting it was decided that early in 2014 another venue will be trialled for our Wednesday coffee morning sessions. Two locations are currently being investigated and a final decision will be soon made and forwarded accordingly. At least 2 weeks’ notice will be given prior to any move from our current Pensionista location.

A BAM shopping/lunch trip, late Feb/early March, to the Aspandem Garden Centre is to be arranged. Please contact Fran, 952927807, if you are likely to attend and if you would require transport or could offer seats in your own vehicles to other BAM members.

If there is enough interest received by Violette, 952828988 or Joan, 952835947 by mid- February, a day trip to Antequera will be arranged for March/April, which includes transport from central Marbella. Please act quickly as numbers are very limited.

Other activities/events are being investigated by committee members. If you have any ideas please contact Violette, 952828988.

Note: I am advised that the recent email sent to most BAM members with regard to Merlyn is a scam and so should be ignored.
